Jennings & Company was a leading manufacturer of slot machines in the United States and also manufactured other coin-operated machines, including pinball machines, from 1906 to the 1980s. It was founded by Ode D. Jennings as Industry Novelty Company, Incorporated of Chicago. On the death of its founder in 1953, the company was succeeded by Jennings & Company. Fruit machines, or three-reelers, first appeared in the USA in 1905. An instant success, they later came to symbolize gangsterism and corruption, and were the focus of restrictive legislation ever after. Three-reelers were rarely seen in Britain before the Betting and Gaming Act of 1960 legalized public gaming.
